Helping patients achieve their desired aesthetic goals is different for every individual. Let me help you choose the best options for you. Liposuction is best approached as a body sculpting procedure rather than a weight loss procedure. The best results are achieved at your ideal body weight while maintaining a healthy diet and regular excercise program. The removed fat can be transferred to other areas such as the face, hands, or buttocks. The skin can be tightened with Renuvion during liposuction or as a separate procedure.

Over the years of working and raising kids, my Wife and I noticed our bodies had changed. We had both gained weight around our midsections, which we never had before. I don’t know if it was because we were older, but no amount of careful diet and exercise made any difference. My Wife opted to try Cool Sculpting. She found it initially painful and ultimately, wasn’t pleased with the results. I thought liposuction was the better option. And it was for me. That’s when I met with Dr. Poe. I liked his laidback manner and the confident way he discussed the procedures. We scheduled based on my timeline (got it done before my upcoming travel) and recovery was easier than I had anticipated. Dr. Poe followed up several times and I have been pleased overall.
I received lipo and a year ago. I had under chin and arms done. I am VERY happy with my results! Dr. Poe did fantastic and I highly recommend him. I will have to try and see them again, soon! Thank you all, again!
I would try. Acoustic Shock wave therapy before considering more Liposuction. Two treatments weekly for several weeks should help soften the hardness. Afterwards more liposuction may be a consideration.
I suggest acoustic shock wave therapy. It is better to start immediately after liposuction, but I think it is worth trying even 6 months later. I would recommend at least 2 treatments each week for several weeks. It is completely painless and takes a few minutes for each treatment. There are no side effects or complications to worry about.
In general, Vaser can help to correct irregularities from previous liposuction better than other methods. Of course every case is different, but Vaser is better for revisions which largely consist of fibrotic fat from the previous liposuction as well as residual fat. The irregularities can be smoothed out by liquifying and removing more fat, but deep depressions are hard to correct with any method. Again this is a general observation and is variable from case to case depending on the location and degree of deformity.
Jowling can be minimized with 4 units of a neurotoxin in the depressor angulari oris on each side and 15 units along the lower border of the mandible and platysmal band on each side (known as a Nefertiti neck lift) to relax these muscles. The result is elevation of the lower face. A more invasive solution is a minimal liposuction and Renuvion of the lower face.
